From the reviews

As one of the Lead therapists here and being with The Now Midtown for the past 3 1/2 years, I would like to state that I truly do not believe that the review about the staff and turnover is for our Midtown location.

★★★★★ — Sarah, Dec 2025

I have been going to The Now since 2022 (the Brier Creek location and this year the Midtown location) and I was super pleased to have one open in Raleigh. I have always had good experiences here, and I know for a fact the staff is treated well and paid fairly.

★★★★★ — Rene, Jul 2025

I’ve spent my life getting massages as my mom has worked across massage therapy, sports medicine, and physical therapy. I’m overall very selective about the practitioners I see repeatedly. All that considered, I immediately signed up for a membership after my first visit to this location and my session with Jacob.

★★★★★ — Devon, Apr 2026

I just had a massage with Sharraine and it was absolutely amazing. From the moment the session started, she created such a calm and comfortable environment that made it easy to fully relax.

What to expect from your first cupping session

New to cupping? Here's the short version. What happens: the practitioner places cups on the skin — most often the back, shoulders, or legs — and creates suction (with a pump, or briefly with a flame for fire cupping). Cups either stay put for a few minutes (dry cupping) or are glided over oiled skin (massage cupping). A session is usually 15–45 minutes, often added to a massage or acupuncture visit. The marks: cupping leaves round, bruise-like circles that are normal and usually fade in a few days to a couple of weeks — they're discoloration from the suction, not an injury, and shouldn't really hurt. What to wear: comfortable clothing that gives access to the area being treated. Afterward: drink water, keep the area warm, and skip intense sun or a hot sauna right after.

Cupping isn't for everyone — if you're on blood thinners, pregnant, or have a skin condition or bleeding disorder, check with your doctor first, and always tell your practitioner about health concerns before a session. This page is directory information, not medical advice.
